LACMA is an amazing museum. I have been many times and gotten so much out of each visit. The Dan Flavin retrospective was powerful, even if it frys your eyes out. They lose two stars for having the…

Went here when they supposedly had the Egyptian exhibit with King Tut but got ripped off since basically it was just a projector shining what his sarcophagus would look like.

I don't think LACMA matches the other top art museums of the country-Chicago and New York have us beat in that department for sure-but it is nonetheless impressive and worth visiting. The permanent…

LACMA offer free live jazz concerts on Friday nights from 6-8pm. They get some pretty big names to play here. More upscale crowd. My only complaint is that because it's an outdoor venue and the…

I'd like to give LACMA five stars for the outstanding Tim Hawkinson show in 2005, but most of the other times I've been there it's been hit or miss.

Want to get inspired? Come here. LA's finest "Discovered" artists and their work. But the rawness of the unknown artist will forever be a major factor prior to being recognized by a place like this.…

Netsuki. Without netsuki, LACMA gets a measly 3 stars. For a big city museum, it's mostly just "okay". BUT in the Japanese exhibit building that's sort of off to the side between the "real" museum…
